Yeah, I think the maroon looks classier. Apparently that scheme was used on later Bonnies n stuff.
I guess with the guards mounted lower than the tank, it's logical for them to be the colour of the lower part of the tank -silver.

More Tiger Cub stuff, for the same customer.
That's Loony taking the snaps. The neck of one of the tanks needed pulling back into shape with a slide hammer as it had been pushed into the top of the tank.

Black bits too. The headlight shell in particular needed a lot of prep to smooth it out before paint, none of which shows now of course.

With so many parts to hang up to dry, the little Austin A35 van, left by another customer, became a temporary drying oven.

Loony's Dad's just bought a lathe. It's been delivered to the workshop today, so yesterday was spent shuffling various vehicles & piles of scrap, valuable automotive parts around to make room for it. This is Loony's BSA Bantam scrambler. A non runner, it's been buried at the back of the 'shop for ages. The local brit bike expert took a look at it yesterday -apparently it's got some quite desirable bits on it.

Doug's swedish import V Dub bus has been a feature outside the workshop for as long as I've been there. With the lease up for renewal, the landlords aren't keen on vehicles cluttering up the yard though, so it's been towed round to the side of the 'shop, ready for collection & delivery to Doug.

Possibly. No idea. All original I believe, but no paperwork for it.
